The roaring twenties, cars driving to the south most point of Miami Beach for dances and the most popular burlesque spot in Miami Florida. Honky-tonk bars at the entrance of the pier that extended out onto the ocean make for a couple of drinks before dancing the night away. The burlesque house at the end of the pier built on the water. Too bad a barge broke loose during the 1926 hurricane and took down Minsky’s Burlesque, but the pier remained for the dances and fishermen to enjoy. This was the popular spot to be for years to come. Slowly as times changed, the honky-tonk bars were demolished and the area became a slow pace safe haven for Jewish immigrants. As this area of beach known as South Beach deteriorated the City of Miami Beach voted to demolition the pier. This strip of beach/ocean is once again the most popular place to be in Miami. South Beach Miami Florida has come full circle into the place for tourist, movie stars, professional athletes and locals to party. Coincidence, this area is the United States mainland point for the Bermuda Triangle. Do we totally know what is under the oceans which cover approximately two thirds of the world or are there forces existing our species has not discovered? Tides change but we do not feel it, science cannot explain gravity or why the planets are suspended in space. What else…….    Underlying topics in the book for thought are: To reach a person’s potential, they must let go of the past. Do we have free will? Unconditional love is the greatest example of free will. What is our purpose/mission in life? Creation, is there a plan? Evolution, is everything forming our existence by chance? Have we discovered all the elements/forces affecting our existence? Is a platform required for a person to change? Is our destiny written in stone? Can it be that if there is a creator and our mission may entail alleviating human suffering? Are there more elements than our species has discovered directing lives? Never giving up!
